Batch Operation

1
Getting Started

Charging the Lithium Ion Battery


The battery automatically charges every time a cable interface is attached to the reader and the host is powered up. Note: The RS-232 interface power adapter must be plugged into a wall socket for the reader to charge. If you power up the HE45T with a completely discharged battery, it will take up to 10 minutes before the reader will become operational.

Batch Operation
Note: To utilize batch functionality, you will need to use the BH1 or BH2 battery handle. Batch data storage and data transfer are controlled by the resident JavaScript application on your HE45T reader. Please consult the HE45T Display User Manual for the application on your HE45T for instructions on how to control data storage and transfer. For Auto Transfer Buffer Memory, use the codes in Figure 110, too:

RS232 Considerations
In RS-232 Batch Cable - Detect mode, the HE45T will detect if it is connected to a powered serial cable, and will send the data. If a powered serial cable is not connected or if the power adapter is not connected to the

serial cable, the HE45T will buffer the data. When the HE45T is then connected to a powered serial cable, the data will automatically upload. In RS-232 Cabled - No Power mode, the HE45T will behave as if it is always connected even though the serial cable is disconnected or the power adapter is unplugged. Scanned data will be sent, regardless of connection status. Data scanned in Cabled mode will be lost if the HE45T is not connected to the serial cable. It will not buffer the data, unless Send & Store mode has been enabled.

Note: If you are in RS232 Cabled-No Power mode, when you place a reader in a charger, the reader will behave as if it is being cabled, and download the data. THE DATA WILL BE ERASED FROM MEMORY. To disable this feature, scan the RS232 Cable - Detect code.

If you purchased a CodeXML Bluetooth Modem or a Belkin Bluetooth adapter from Siemens or from an authorized distributor, a QuickConnect code was included (Figure 127).
FIGURE 127.

QuickConnect Code

The QuickConnect code has the information of the Bluetooth address (often a reference to go to the BD_ADDR) of that device. You can usually find the 12-character Bluetooth address somewhere on the device near the devices serial number (Figure 127). This code will link your HE45T directly to the desired Bluetooth device.

Note: While installing the Bluetooth Configuration Manager software that was included with your Bluetooth adapter, make sure to note the Virtual COM Port number the software assigned for the adapter (e.g. COM 10). This is the COM Port your HE45T will connect through. To connect your reader, scan the Reset to Factory Defaults in Figure 128. Then, the QuickConnect Code and your HE45T will automatically connect. You should also scan the Save Settings code if you want to save these settings. Note: If the HE45T powers off without scanning the Save Settings code, you will lose your settings.

Radio Range and Transferring Data


The HE45T radio is a Class 1 device. If connected to another Class 1 device, the reader has roughly a 300 foot line of sight operating range. If connecting to a Class 2 or Class 3 device, the operating range may drop to match the lower range. Once a reader is connected, the application software on the host must be open to receive data. When the HE45T detects the radio is out of range, the HE45T will store data on the readers non-volatile memory. The reader will continue to try and send data until radio is back in range. Once the data is sent, the data will be erased from the readers memory. If the radio cannot connect in 90 seconds, it will give an error beep. The reader will continue to try and connect until it has reached the programmable radio timeout setting.

The HE45T Bluetooth protocol allows for two forms of communication: One Way Mode Defined as one way communication between the reader and host. One Way mode is only recommended when connecting to a device well within its specified range, or if connected to a device without an operating system (i.e., printer). There are two settings in this mode: Max Range (Default) Greater range but data reliability is lower Max Reliability Limits range but reliability is improved RF One Way Mode Range & Reliability Codes

FIGURE 129.

RF One Way Mode (Max Range)

RF One Way Mode (Max Reliability)

Note: While robust, One Way Mode doesnt guarantee data integrity and you may have data loss when operating in the fringes of radio range or in the presence of radio interference. RF Two Way Mode This is two way communication between the host and reader. This requires the implementation of software at the application level. The reader receives confirmation via packet protocol verification and is 100% reliable. Data will be retransmitted automatically if necessary. RF Two Way Mode Codes

Targeting and Reading Techniques


The HE45T utilizes digital camera technology to take a picture of a symbol. Once an image is captured, the HE45T utilizes advanced decoding algorithms to extract data from the captured image. The reader features left and right triggers. These triggers may be programmed to perform various features. The reader is shipped with the left trigger and right trigger functioning as a decode symbol command. The H2 Cabled Handle and BH1/BH2 Battery Handle each feature a trigger on the handle. The two triggers on the top of the reader also work when the handle is attached.

The HE45T was developed to decode both very small 2-D symbols and larger 1-D symbols. The reader has an innovative dual field decode zone. The HE45T DECODES BOTH ZONES SIMULTANEOUSLY. The reader has a lens focused on a near-field for smaller codes (optimal focal point is 4 inches) and one lens focused on a far-field for larger codes (optimal focal point 9 inches). To read smaller symbols move the HE45T closer to the symbol. To read larger symbols move the reader farther away from the symbol. The entire HE45T decode zone varies between two (2) and twenty (20+) or more inches. Hold the HE45T still - DO NOT SWIPE OR MOVE THE READER. Press the trigger until the HE45T beeps, indicating the code has been successfully decoded. To read a symbol with a shiny background, hold the HE45T slightly tilted to avoid the reflected light from the LEDs. The reader may be optimized to your specific environment by scanning codes in Chapter 6, Advanced Decoder Performance.

Imager Field of View and Resolution


The HE45Ts dual field optical system may be modified based on your scanning environment. The HE45Ts megapixel imager may be set to the following three modes: SXGA Mode In standard SXGA mode (default), the 1.3 Million Pixel imager is divided into near field and far field decode zones. In each zone, the resolution is 1024 x 640 pixels (see Figure 139). In this mode of operation, the reader utilizes the highest resolution, creating the widest working range on 1-D and 2-D symbols of all densities. The trade-off is the amount of time the reader spends processing the image. This time can be reduced by optimization functions: If only the near field is used (small, high density symbols), the far field image can be ignored. If only the far field is used (large, lower density symbols), the near field can be ignored.

VGA Mode In VGA mode (optional selection), the 1.3 Million Pixels are sampled on a 4-to-1 basis. This greatly reduces the amount of time necessary for the transfer of the image to the CPU and the resulting processing time (Figure 139). The trade-off for this increased speed is a reduction in resolution. SXGA & VGA Mode In SXGA and VGA mode (optional selection), it has all different quality of images from SXGA and VGA separated. The decode engine will have greater success decoding the images. The tradeoff is the amount of time the reader uses processing the images (even more than SXGA mode, particularly when it is not decodable).

Optimization and Trigger Programming

Introduction
The HE45T comes pre-configured with SXGA mode and its dual field optical system activated for all the triggers. From the moment you turn on your HE45T, you are taking full advantage of the dual path 1.3 megapixel imager and the 400 MHz processor with Siemens industry leading DPM technology. The HE45T is easily customizable; each trigger can be independently programmed for different behavior. Near Field (NF) The nearest field of the HE45Ts two image fields. The Near Field can be configured to use SXGA or VGA resolution. It has an optimal focal point of 4 (101.6 mm) away from the lens of the reader. The width of the Field of View is 1.5 (38.1 mm) at the optimal focus point. Far Field (FF) The farthest field of the HE45Ts two image fields. The Far Field can be configured to use SXGA and VGA resolution. It has an optimal focal point of 9 (228.6 mm) away from the lens of the reader. The width of the Field of View is 4 (101.6 mm) at the optimal focus point.

The following sections provide you with the ability to program individual triggers, or all triggers, to perform with different parameters.

Department of Defense Unique Identification (UID) 4
UID is a mandatory Department of Defense requirement on all solicitations issued January 1, 2004. This policy mandates the use of Data Matrix symbology on a large class of equipment and parts procured by DoD. The HE45T reader complies with Department of Defense Standard Practice Identification (MIL-STD-130). Once the HE45T decodes the Data Matrix symbol, and, if the Unique Item Identifier (UII) or ISO 15434 is turned on, it checks the ISO 15434 syntax with ISO 15418 (ANSI MH10.8.2 - AI & DI) and ISO 21849 (ATA - TEI) semantics to construct UII.

CHAPTER 4

DoD UID Settings


The following UID data output options are applicable to Data Matrix only and have no effect on other symbologies: UII DM On The HE45T is configured to construct UII. If there is a valid UII, a UII string is outputted. For decoded Data Matrix with invalid UII, HE45T stops image acquisition without an output string. UII/ISO 15434 DM On The HE45T is configured to construct UII or any ISO 15434 compliance data. The output is either UII or valid ISO 15434 syntax complied data. For a decoded Data Matrix with invalid UII or ISO 15434 syntax, the HE45T stops image acquisition without an output string.

Keyboard Support
US English (Default) Use this option with the U.S. keyboard to display characters of ASCII values from 1 to 126. Non-printable characters with ASCII values from 1 to 31 are shown as symbols in Windows. You can enter them by holding down the Alt key, typing the digits of the ASCII value using the numeric keypad, and then releasing the Alt key. US English With Leading 0 Use this option with the U.S. keyboard to display full ASCII characters the same way as they are entered by typing Alt + 0 + ASCII value from the numeric keypad. Non-printable characters are shown as action in Windows. For example, typing Alt + 0 + 13 results in the Carriage Return that moves the cursor to the beginning of the next line. French Use this option with the French keyboard to display ASCII characters the same way as the US English With Leading 0 option with the U.S. keyboard. German Use this option with the German keyboard to display ASCII characters the same way as the US English With Leading 0 option with the U.S. keyboard.

Image Resolution Mode Settings


The megapixel imager in the HawkEye 45T has the SXGA resolution of 1280x1024 pixels. For reading 1-D and 2-D bar codes with cell size or X dimension greater than 15 mils or 0.015 inches, many pixels are redundant and can be safely ignored without negatively impacting the reading success. By selecting the VGA resolution of 640x480 pixels, the HE45T increases the reading performance by decreasing the image capture and processing time. SXGA Only Cell size or X dimension of most bar codes is no greater than 15 mils (0.015 inches) VGA Only Cell size of all bar codes is greater than 15 mils SXGA & VGA For reading bar codes with mixed cell sizes or X dimensions Image Resolution Mode Codes

Turbo Dot Peen Mode Settings


The HE45T with the default settings offers the best overall performance for Data Matrix DPM reading. For reading dot peen marks with cell size larger than 15 mils or 0.015 inches, it is often possible to improve the reading performance by enabling the Turbo Dot Peen mode. It is also recommended that Read With Near Field Only mode and VGA Only mode be used in conjunction with the Turbo Dot Peen On mode to achieve the best reading response. Note: Turbo Dot Peen mode should not be used for reading small marks (dot peen or others) as it may increase the processing time and reduce the robustness of reading small marks.

Exposure Control
The HE45T with the default exposure control settings (Exp Auto) maintains proper exposure settings with minimized capture frames to help improve firstread rate. The other three fixed exposure settings are suitable for applications with the same type of contrast marks. Note: If you change exposure control, the HE45T begins using the new exposure control on the second trigger. For example, assume the following: 1. HE45T = Exp Auto. 2. You read Exp High. 3. First Trigger. HE45T = Exp Auto. 4. Second Trigger. HE45T = Exp High. . . . 5. Nth Trigger. HE45T = Exp High.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

HE45T Maintenance
The HE45T operates efficiently and reliably and needs only a minimum of maintenance to operate. A few tips are given below for maintenance suggestions.

Cleaning the HE45Ts Window


The HE45Ts window should be clean to allow the best performance. The window is the clear plastic piece inside the head of the Reader. Do not touch the window. Your HE45T uses CMOS technology that is much like a digital camera. A dirty window may stop the HE45T from reading codes. If the window becomes dirty, clean it with a soft, non-abrasive cloth or a facial tissue (no lotions or additives) that has been moistened with water. You may use a mild detergent to clean the window, but the window should be wiped with a water moistened cloth or tissue after using the detergent. The HE45Ts display screen and housing may be cleaned in the same way. For applications that require cleaning with disinfectant, please use products with the following ingredients: Isopropyl Alcohol Ethyl Alcohol (Denatured Grade)

Siemens does not recommend using bleach.
